Honkhonk
« on: June 20, 2013, 09:58:42 PM »
Finally getting rid of the anemic stock horn.  This is a Hella 400/500 combo.  The stock was a single 500.  I have to make a harness and wire up the relay still.

I haven't looked but the horns came with a relay as well.  I should check though.

worst case just replace the relay if they're rated differently, i doubt the wires would need upgrading.

It came with a 30A relay so I don't think I'll have to change it as that's pretty standard.

You got me thinking I need to get my Horn working again.  So replaced the relay and that was it.  So I had this laying around Bought it for the Harley and it did not fit anywhere out of sight.



The ad for it.

Quote
This is a full-power railroad locomotive/ocean liner type compressed air horn squeezed into a bike-mountable package. Totally overkill, until you need to wake up some lethal driver. It’s got both the high and low ear-splitting tones of the individually sold Fiamm Freeway Blaster Horns, plus a little more oomph. The 139dB high and low tone blasters combine via air induction to cut through the din and make the most distracted of drivers drop their cell phones and pay attention. Installs easily on all bikes with a 4.5"×3"×4.5" space for mounting. The loudest motorcycle horn available.

  It IS LOUD.  Ears still ringing.

I had just put in an Airaid cool air system, to get rid of my funky one.

  Well the Horn fits in that area Normally so I had to remove it.  Got to looking at where I could put it and under the filter mounted to the airaid housing worked great.  This horn has to face down so it does not fill with water.  It is really protected where I have it now.
